I think I used an IMD(?) Piston kit in the 250RSA, hopefully they do a set for the 400/4. Do Cruzinimage makes pistons and rings for anyone else?

Edit... Forgot to say that Cruzinimage rings are Riken, which is what Honda use.

If they are genuine Riken then you would expect them to work just fine. Do they have the 'R' stamping on them Julie? That would be a good indication.

I'm reading some really negative stuff about aftermarket pistons and especially about the quality of Cruzinimage piston rings, notoriously the 350 four ones which are reportedly very soft and wear extremely quickly. Reports I may add that come from a very experienced mechanic and certified Honda/Kawasaki mechanic trainer, not the sort of person to shout wolf you'd image.

Any links to posts discussing this please Ken?

I'm pretty sure my top ring had an R on it.

Yes, R is Riken.

I have a set of new genuine NOS Honda 400 oversize pistons & rings that I bought for a spare engine that I recently sold so they are now in my bedroom wardrobe waiting to be sold.
